STANDARD OR ORGANIC?

STANDARD FINISH & BUILD:  ASTM approved OHIO CERTIFIED STAINS and a chemical catalyzed finish.  Built with SOLID wood, but has plywood backing and drawer bottoms.  This type of furniture has been a staple of KIDS COLLECTION for many years.

 WATER-BASED FINISH AND STANDARD BUILD:  Again, ASTM approved OHIO CERTIFIED stains with a WATER-BASED, ODORLESS, LOW V.O.C.(Volitial Organic Compound) finish versus the chemical catalyzed finish.  It is 100% color accurate and actually more durable, after 30 days of curing, than standard catatlyzed finish.  The V.O.C. reading in untraceable by the time the furniture has left the finish shop.  It is built with SOLID wood, but has plywood backing and drawer bottoms.double-loft.jpg

*WATER-BASED FINISH AND ORGANIC-MINDED BUILD:  Same features as listed above as far as the finish goes, but buildt ORGANICALLY.  Which means absolutely NO chemicals in the wood that is used in the construction of the furniture.  So it has formaldahyde free backing and drawer bottoms on the casegoods.  It is the next step for the GREEN consumer. (More information listed in the next section below.)

*ORGANIC STAIN, FINISH, & BUILD: 

At Kids Collection we are excited to introduce our new Kid's Comfort Organic line of funiture for a eco-friendly and chemical free option for our customers.   Option is offered in the Manhattan, Cottage, Shaker, Jr Mission, Jr Traditional, Newport, Buckeye, Traditional, & Carlisle Collections. 



We are still making our products with child safe varnishes and also are meeting ASTM kidscomfortorganic.jpgstandards and consumer safety product standards on the construction of our products.  However we are now taking this step to further exceed any and all regulations.  Also, we are making this an option for parents who have a concern about being chemical free and are organic minded.

All Kid's Comfort Organic products are hand-crafted and hand-assembled by skilled craftsmen in Holmes County, Ohio.  Using local labor and resources.

All  Kid's Comfort Organic products are made with solid wood materials.  There is absolutely no plywood or particle board used to make our products.

All  Kid's Comfort Organic products are stained with a natural finish made with organic raw materials from plants, minerals and other natural raw materials.

All Kid's Comfort Organic products are finished by hand rubbing two coats of organic stain and one coat of clear natural organic wood finish.  It is offered in light, medium, & dark colors on all woods.

  All Kid's Comfort Organic products use lumber that is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.  This certification makes sure that the wood is locally sourced and responsibly harvested. www.fscus.org

  Kid's Comfort Organic construction waste is minimal as excess wood scraps and sawdust are used for heat. Also, wood chips and shredded paper are used for animal bedding.

    There are NO imported products in the manufacturing of Kid's Comfort Organic products which keeps our carbon footprint low.

 

The stain and finish supplier we use is recommended by Green Seals Report at WWW.GREENSEAL.org.
